With the festive season on its way, our minds have naturally turned to the most joyful task of all: Christmas decorating. Whether you’re planning to go all out or simply want to add a few thoughtful touches, now’s the perfect time to start dreaming up your festive scheme. So settle in with a mince pie and a glass of mulled wine (too early? never), and get inspired to deck the halls this year with a little extra magic.
Go Big on Bows
Oversized bows are back for 2025, and they’re stealing the show yet again. Topping trees, adorning dining chairs, or welcoming guests on the front door – they’re the perfect way to add instant festive flair. Bigger, bolder, and endlessly charming – bows are the accessory of the season.
Golden Glow
Warm autumnal shades are shining this year, paired perfectly with metallic accents. Think amber hues with brass or gold finishes that catch the light for a soft glow, like our antique-finish bell garland or star garland. Add cinnamon-scented candles to fill your home with that nostalgic, comforting aroma we all associate with Christmas.
Merry Maximalism
If ‘more is more’ is your mantra, you’ll be pleased to know maximalism is firmly on the nice list this year. Trees dripping with bright baubles, mantlepieces bursting with garlands, and gifts wrapped in patterned paper, tied with colourful ribbons. It’s all about fun, unapologetic celebration – think dopamine dressing for your décor.
The Power of Red
Red is an obvious festive favourite, but this year it’s taking on a new life thanks to the unexpected red theory. Decorate your tree with pops of crimson baubles, scatter pomegranates, berries or red florals along your dining table, and weave holly branches across your mantelpiece for a touch of festive foliage.
Delightful Stripes
Candy cane–inspired stockings, striped ribbons adorning gifts, or patterned table linens are bringing playful charm to the season. Stripes are an easy way to add personality and pattern to your Christmas décor. A simple detail that makes a big impact.
Nostalgic Magic
At its heart, Christmas will always be about nostalgia. Mix vintage ornaments with new finds, hang stockings on the mantel, and cosy up in bed with holiday-inspired bedding you’ll treasure for years to come. It’s all about recreating the warmth and wonder of Christmases past.
